Book Description

A guide designed for programmers with desktop experience in C. Key techniques required in all embedded systems are covered in detail, including the control of port pins and the reading of switches.

It's been suggested that there are now as many embedded systems in everyday use as there are people on planet Earth. Domestic appliances from washing machines to TVs, video recorders and mobile phones, now include at least one embedded processor. They are also vital components in a huge variety of automotive, medical, aerospace and military systems. As a result, there is strong demand for programmers with 'embedded' skills, and many desktop developers are moving into this area.
